Akula Hope Designs Giveaway!!!

It's a new year, and a new month, so I'm going to try something new!  I've participated in a few giveaways on other people's blogs which was quite fun.  So, I figured why not!...I'm gonna do one of my own!

In honor of all those February babies out there, I've decided to give away a pair of my gorgeous purple amethyst drop earrings.  Deep purple faceted rondelles are wire wrapped on sterling silver and suspended from twisted silver rings.  They are totally adorable!
